Before using your new product, please read these instructions to prevent any damage.

SETTING UP YOUR FREEZER

Before using your freezer

•

Remove the exterior and interior packing.

•

Let the freezer stand upright for approximately two hours

before connecting it to power.

•

Wipe the inside.

•

When moving your freezer, do not tilt it beyond 45° from

upright.

Finding a suitable location

•

This freezer is designed to be free standing only, and should

not be recessed or built-in.

•

Place your freezer on a floor that is strong enough to support

the freezer when it is fully loaded.

•

If your freezer is located too far from your WiFi router, the

signal may be too weak for a good connection. If that’s the

case, a WiFi range extender should improve connectivity.

•

Allow 7.9 inches (20 cm) of space between the sides of the

freezer and the walls, 3.9 inches (10 cm) between the back of

the freezer and the wall, and 11.8 inches (30 cm) between

the top of the freezer and the ceiling.

•

If you locate the freezer next to a fixed wall, allow sufficient

space on the hinge side for the door to swing open.

•

Locate the freezer away from direct sunlight and sources of

heat, such as a stove, heater, or radiator. Direct sunlight may

affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase

electrical consumption. Extremely cold temperatures may

also prevent the freezer from performing properly.

•

Avoid locating the freezer in moist areas.

Leveling your freezer

•

If the feet are not adjusted during installation, the doors

may not close or seal properly, causing cooling, frost, or

moisture problems.

•

To level your freezer, rotate the leveling feet clockwise (to

raise) the freezer or counter-clockwise (to lower). The front

of the freezer may be slightly higher than the back.

Installing the door handle

1

Unplug the freezer.

2

Screw the extended-head screws into the door holes with

a Phillips screwdriver. Do not overtighten. The screw heads

should extend above the surface of the door.

3

Loosen the hex screws on the top and bottom of the

handle with the hex wrench (provided) so that you can fit

the handle over the extended head screws in the door.

4

Place the door handle over the heads of the screws, then

tighten the hex screws.
